"mowing lizard" or "mowing lizard" Therizinosaurus

Therizinosaurus (literally— "mowing lizard" or "mowing lizard") is a genus of large theropod dinosaurs. Therizinosaurs lived at the end of the Cretaceous Period (Maastrichtian Age) and were one of the last and largest representatives of their unique group — therizinosaurs. It was described from deposits of the Nemeget formation in Mongolia, and initially the fossils were interpreted as belonging to a turtle (hence the name of the species, "tortoiseshell"). Only a few bones are known (forelimbs, hindlimbs), including giant claws, because of which it got its generic name. it probably had a 9-12-meter length, a small skull crowning a long neck, a bipedal gait and a heavy, voluminous body (as evidenced by the wide pelvis of other therizinosaurids) weighing up to 6 tons
